5 Sex Positions for Helping to Delay Ejaculation

It is estimated that around 20-30%of men in the United States may suffer from premature ejaculation, although it is difficult to accurately measure its prevalence because of the numerous symptoms the term is used to describe. Broadly speaking, premature ejaculation can be understood as regularly climaxing within one minute of penetration.

Also, certain sex positions have been shown to help delay ejaculation and prolong the sexual experience (Durex UK). You can couple these positions with K-Y® Duration™ Spray , a specially designed formula to slow down the ejaculation process. In this article, we’ve listed a few you can try with your partner at home.

Sitting position

The sitting position is an intimate and romantic position that allows the woman to sit on their partner’s lap with their arms and legs wrapped around him. This ensures that either party can regulate the speed, depth, and angle of intercourse, helping reduce the change of premature ejaculation.

While it’s true that the woman can choose each of the parameters, the position itself allows the man to slow down if he feels he is going to climax too early. This is best performed in a comfortable chair or on the end of a bed.

Stand and carry position

The stand and carry position requires that the man holds their partner’s full weight, while the female wraps their legs around his waist. This position can prolong sexual activity because the concentration required to maintain balance during penetration can provide a distraction and slow down the process of arousal and eventual climax.

We don’t recommend choosing this position if the man is unable to support their partner’s weight and it’s important to make sure that the act is performed in a safe environment that can limit any injuries, should you struggle to stay standing throughout the course of your romantic encounter. At the top of the stairs is probably not a good idea!

Spooning

If missionary is feeling a little dull for both you and your partner, try the spooning position to spice things up a little. Spooning allows both man and woman to maintain a constant pace that should reduce the chances of early ejaculation.

Get the woman to lie on her side as the male takes his place behind, and make sure you’re both facing the same direction as he slowly enters. Spooning ensures a slower, more rhythmic sexual encounter that will be a pleasurable exercise for everyone involved

Woman on top

Similar in execution to the sitting position, this is a common role that you probably didn’t realize can help limit the chances of premature ejaculation and prolong the amount of time you and your partner are having sex. It allows either party to control the amount of stimulation the man receives, as well as both partners being able to take charge of speed, depth and pressure.

In other words, tell your partner to take control. If the woman slows down during intercourse, the man should reduce the amount of thrust put into the position as it’ll help prolong the experience. For optimum pleasure, get him to lay back on a bed and allow the woman to slower lower herself onto him

Oral sex

It’s worth noting that K-Y Duration™ Spray is meant to be used for vaginal sex only, but oral sex is a fun alternative to intercourse. If premature ejaculation is really getting you down, don’t worry, there are plenty of other fun activities that you can undertake in the bedroom until you rebuild your confidence. Oral sex is an alternative to full penetration that is safe and requires much less effort. However, you should always seek medical attention if symptoms of PE continue.

The numerous different positions that can be tried and tested with oral sex give you and your partner a smorgasbord of pleasure that is varied and fun. Dim the lights, put on some romantic music and let your sense of touch run wild.

Sex should be pleasurable for both halves of a relationship and these positions have been created to ensure not only an enjoyable sexual experience but a long-lasting one too.
